Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwiches

We went downtown today to try to do our part In making our way which was led by the heart Peanut butter and jelly was what we had to give Something for their belly in this life that they live Some laying on a vent others against the wall This little comfort sent doesn't cradle their fall But a moment of kindness with a caring hand For in all this whole mess, God will understand They always say thank you and look you in the eyes I don't know quite what to do but my heart often cries As the sandwiches finish and we then soon depart The faces never diminish in weighing upon my heart My grandson and I today we did the right thing And though I may cry my heart will always sing Even the tiniest of things when done in His Name Oh! The joy that brings! For in Him there is no shame! "The King will reply, 'Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.' Matthew 25:40
